The lightweight warmth base fabric is made of polypropylene, which is eco-friendly, and hydrophobic. The membrane material also uses the newly developed micro-porous PP membrane from the U.S. to achieve excellent breathable waterproof, and air permeable fabric. PP is currently known to be the most eco-friendly, lightweight, and warm material.

  • Eco-friendly materials
  • Lightweight fabric
  • Warmth retention
  • Microporous polypropylene membrane

Select high-tenacity nylon yarn improves the abrasion resistance and strength of the fabric. It combines eco-friendly, durable water repellent, high water pressure, and a high breathability microporous coating, making it a suitable fabric for skiing and snowboarding clothing.

  • Ideal for outerwear
  • High abrasion resistance
  • Durable water repellent
  • Waterproof breathable microporous coating

Fabric Built for Lightweight Warmth and Abrasion Resistance

Thermal yarn is used to enhance warmth or lighten equipment for keeping warm in the snow. Whether microporous coating or PU, TPU lamination is our technique for a high-quality breathable waterproof jacket that is among Sunny Special’s expertise.

What is the difference between waterproof and water repellent?

For the specific application of clothing, the primary function of water repellent is to reduce the absorption of water by the fabric so that the water can be "pulled away" on the fabric's outer layer.

Waterproof treatment is an impermeable barrier, such as coating or lamination, so regardless of whether the material absorbs water or not, it keeps all water out.

Which is the difference between air permeability and moisture permeability?

Air permeability refers to the ability of air to pass through a textile. When the air permeability of the fabric is high, you can feel the breeze even when you are wearing clothes. Conversely, when the air permeability of the fabric is low, the wind resistance is good; even a strong wind will not be able to affect it.

Water vapor permeability refers to the ability of water in the form of vapor to pass through a textile, which is an essential function of waterproof and moisture permeability. After steam emanates from the body, it can leak from the clothing system to significantly improve the wearer’s comfort.

What should I know before checking the waterproof breathable rating for fabrics?

There are many different test methods for water resistance and moisture permeability values, with considerable differences in data when choosing these different methods.

  • The quality of the function cannot be judged simply by looking at the value but also by understanding the material and test method.
  • Location: The United States, Europe, and Japan all have corresponding test methods.
  • In the water pressure test, use the same fabric test. The value of high water pressure will be higher than low water pressure.
